Is Atlas Dunnage a manufacturer or a distributor of dunnage airbags?

Atlas Dunnageis a fully verticaly integrated manufacturer of dunnage airbags.

What makes Atlas Dunnage different from other manufacturers?

Our production facility is fully vertically integrated. This means we extrude our raw materials, weave our polypropylene yarns and confection our finished products under the same roof. This means our quality control and costs are constantly kept in check, allowing us to sell the best product at the lowest cost.

Are all dunnage airbags the same?

No. There are many differentiating factors that come into play when manufacturing dunnage bags.

• First is material supply. Manufacturers have to source their material supply from multiple third party suppliers. This creates inconsistencies in the quality of their materials which in turn creates inconsistencies in the quality of their finished product. Cargo Tuff makes it's own materials thereby ensuring this consistency.
• Second is quality control. Do the specs and the quality of the materials used to obtain verification from the AAR match the specs of the materials actually used in the production of the products sold to the customer? Cargo Tuff is transparent with our specs and you can verify them at any point in time by comparing the actual specs of a product with our spec and performance sheets.
